Water Usage Questions

WATER USAGE

On your Midvale City Utility Bill, the item listed as Water Usage is the actual amount of water you used during the billing cycle. The water usage number listed on your bill is the number of units for each 1000 gallons of water used. If you use less than 1000 gallons in a billing period, no number will be listed in this area of your bill.

There is no water allocated with your Water Base. The Water Base charge includes the fees for maintenance and repair of Midvale's water service to the water meter at your home or business.

Midvale City maintains water service to the meter. The water service from the meter to your home is the full responsibility of the property owner.
